Project Compassion
Term 1 is fast coming to an end. Please continue to give generously to Project Compassion.
“Caritas Australia’s annual Lenten fundraising and awareness-raising appeal is an extraordinary, ongoing demonstration of the faith, love and generosity of the Catholic congregation and caring supporters throughout Australia to help end poverty, promote justice and uphold dignity.” (www.caritas.org.au)
Thank you to all families who have already supported this worthwhile cause.
There are six short feature stories on the Caritas website, which show how donations can change lives. View here:

St Mary's Seniors at Rosies
We continue to support Rosies in a variety of ways. Every month our students and teachers support Rosies outreach with those in need.
Students 16 years old, or older, are invited to give up one Friday or Sunday night a month to help serve a meal and drinks, and provide a friendly face for those in Cairns who are doing it tough right now.
Lions Recycle for Sight
We are pleased to begin supporting Lions Recycle for Sight. If you have glasses you no longer use, we are happy to pass these to Lions. Last year Australians gave 300,000 pairs of glasses to countries all over the world in need.
